Rhian Traceys When Isla meets Luke meets Isla deals with two common problems displacement and divorce. Isla, an Edinburgh girl who loves the beauty of the Scottish capital and the neatness of her bedroom, is forced to move, with her family, to a grotty house in Maidstone.
At school, shes not a member of the girl gang called The Gaggle, who all smoke and wear pink hooded tops and lots of mascara.
Here, she meets Luke, her only hope. Luke has been feminised by what he calls "the inevitable" his parents divorce and the fact of living with his mother.
"You find out far too much about women, especially middle aged women", he says.
A gritty and poignant story.
